9 ways to block meteorites

When a meteorite is found to be able to hit the earth, humans can fire a nuclear missile to change meteorite trajectories or destroy it with robots.

9 ideas to save the earth from meteorites

1. Every object in the universe, including meteorites and spacecraft, has gravity. Therefore, when we discover a meteorite capable of crashing into the earth, we can launch a spacecraft near the meteorite so that the gravity of the ship changes the asteroid's flight path.

2. Many scientists propose the idea of launching nuclear missiles on meteors to deflect their flight trajectories. Humans should not destroy the meteorite with nuclear energy, because their fragments may still plunge into the earth.

3. However, many experts believe that shooting nuclear missiles on meteors is like bringing a knife to cut chicken. According to them, humans only need to shoot regular missiles or throw spacecraft to throw explosives down on meteors to deflect their routes. The disadvantage of this measure is that it has to be done for tens of years before meteorites come close to the globe.

4. If you wear a dark shirt on a sunny day, we will feel hotter than wearing a white shirt because dark colors absorb more light, and white reflects more solar radiation.Solar radiation can alter meteorite's orbit. When some areas of meteorite are painted white and some other areas are painted black , the degree of absorption of solar radiation varies among regions, causing meteorite orbits to change.

5. Launching a spacecraft with large solar panels on meteorites is also a way. Huge batteries will reflect sunlight into the meteorite, and its gravity will also change the meteorite trajectory, though only slightly. However, many scientists believe that spacecraft are difficult to land on meteors because " sky rocks " always rotate quickly.

6. At first glance, putting a white net on a meteorite may be a crazy idea, but scientists claim that for small meteorites (several hundred kilograms), the net can change the trajectory of them.

7. If meteorites are created by ice or ice on the surface, we can launch giant spherical mirrors into space to expel sunlight into an area of ​​meteorites.

This method is quite similar to the operation rule of DE_STAR. The system works as follows: It uses solar panels to turn it into a phase laser phase. These lasers were then converted into single lasers, destroying meteorites. If the meteorite is too large, DE-STAR can cause it to change direction, not crashing into the Earth. One of the plus points of this project is that it works based on an existing technology available.

8. Many people believe that we should launch a spacecraft onto a meteorite and then attach it to a hole. Then the ship gave the engine an operation to push the engine's momentum to change the meteorite orbit.

9. Bringing robots to meteors to destroy it seems to be a scene that only appears in sci-fi movies. But the US government has funded such a study. Scientists will build robots that work on nuclear energy. When an asteroid capable of hitting the Earth appears, they will be launched to peel each part and thrown into space until the meteorite is completely destroyed.

If all 9 of these measures fail, we must be prepared for the worst. At that time, we should try to live every second of every minute, while leaving a message for cockroaches , because they can survive after terrible disasters. In addition to cockroaches, there are many other animals that can dominate the Earth after a terrible explosion caused by meteorites.
